About

I have a speciality practice, Deeper Roots Therapy, focused on somatic therapy for trauma, binge eating disorder, compulsive over-eating and bulimia, along with co-occurring issues of anxiety, depression and interpersonal relationships. I utilize a non-diet, Intuitive Eating approach and have extensive training and experience in mindfulness, trauma therapy and somatic experiencing. Prior to my private practice, I was supervisor of an outpatient eating disorder program in Connecticut. I am also a faculty member of the Embodied Recovery Institute, a somatic therapy training program.

My therapy style focuses on teaching intuitive eating, guiding clients to reconnect with their bodies, and working with the body to regulate the nervous system, process trauma and increase capacity for embodiment. I work extensively with the body though somatic and trauma therapies, such as Embodied Recovery, Safe and Sound Protocol and Brainspotting.

Please feel free to reach out for a consultation to learn more about my work and how I may help you. I also offer Supervision and Consultation for fellow therapists. Deeper Roots Therapy employs a group of qualified therapists and I can assist you in finding the right therapist fit for you. Visit www.deeperrootstherapy.com for more information.
